EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming chromolithograph depicts the False Christmas Cactus, Schlumbergera truncata, also known as Epiphyllum truncatum. The image is taken from an illustration by Desire Bois, featured in Edward Step's "Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse," published by Frederick Warne in London in 1896. The False Christmas Cactus is a popular houseplant, prized for its unique appearance and seasonal blooming. Unlike its name suggests, it is not actually a true cactus but rather a member of the epiphyllum family. The False Christmas Cactus is native to the tropical rainforests of Brazil and is characterized by its large, waxy, green leaves that are arranged in a rosette shape. During the winter months, it produces beautiful, vibrant flowers that range in color from pink to red to white. These flowers are shaped like small bells and bloom in clusters, giving the plant a festive appearance. The illustration provides a detailed and accurate representation of the False Christmas Cactus, highlighting its prickly pear-like stems and the small, fig-like fruit that develops after the flowers have bloomed. The plant is often grown as an epiphyte, meaning it obtains its nutrients and water from the air and rain, rather than from the ground. This Victorian-era botanical illustration captures the beauty and intrigue of the False Christmas Cactus, showcasing its unique features and making it a must-have for any botanical or horticultural enthusiast's collection. The illustration also provides a glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of gardening and flower appreciation during the late 19th century.
